I don't have difficulty remembering names of people I am around quite often.
But, I've always noticed if someone is no longer a part of my everyday life or not around anymore
at all I can't remember their name.
I will remember them like a picture in my mind, but, not the name.
And that can be for people I've known for like 30 years.
It's like having an automatic trash can, and I don't mean that in a cruel way, but, once they are
no longer a part of my life it's like the name just is automatically forgotten.
They would have had to been a very close friend or family member to not forget the name.
Same with people I meet in a setting of knowing I won't be seeing them probably ever again
or seldom again. Like a group meeting or gathering.
It's as if they are no longer or won't be a common piece of my life, the name is of no
use and the brain just drops it.
As far as a candy bar?
I've always had a joke about being an Almond Joy.
Remember the old commercial that said: Peter Paul Almond Joy's got nuts, Mounds don't?
Because sometimes you feel like a nut, and I hardly ever don't.
